Bank A is a national pioneer in serving China's small‑ and micro‑enterprise sector. It built its reputation on fast, risk‑controlled lending that fuels local economic growth. To prepare for the next wave of digital finance, the bank joined forces with Alibaba Cloud's Dataphin data‑governance platform and Quick BI analytics suite. Their shared goal was to turn scattered operational information into a single, trustworthy data foundation that would power smarter, technology‑driven expansion.
Despite strong market standing, Bank A's data landscape was fragmented. Metrics lacked unified definitions, eroding credibility with regulators and managers. Data assets were hard to locate, ownership was unclear, and governance processes were ad‑hoc without platform support. Slow, manual reconciliation delayed strategic choices and regulatory submissions significantly further.
Working with Alibaba Cloud, the bank created a unified data‑middle‑platform that seamlessly links its behavioral, OA and product systems. Dataphin supplied a data asset management module, while Quick BI delivered self‑service analytics. Together they provided a single front‑door portal encompassing data research and governance, asset cataloging, development, shelving and fee‑based consumption. A standardized workflow mapped every data lineage step and assigned clear responsibilities, embedding governance controls directly into pipelines.
The team first compiled more than 1600 foundational data standards, aligning ten core business domains, fourteen thematic areas and over one hundred processes—including EAST and gold‑reporting routines demanded by regulators. They then digitized the entire asset catalog, established automatic up‑/down‑shelf approvals, and fueled dashboards that allow branch staff to search, preview and reuse trusted metrics. The platform's open APIs expose cleansed data to downstream applications, enabling end‑to‑end management across fifteen enterprise systems.
The initiative delivered tangible governance rigor and commercial agility. More than 2500 bank‑level indicator standards are now centrally managed, underpinned by 1600 foundational data items spanning ten major business lines. A unified catalog covering fifteen systems gives users visibility of assets and lineage, speeding report preparation and regulatory filing cycles. Over 110 core supervisory metrics are automatically populated, raising compliance accuracy. With clean, traceable data accessible through Quick BI, departments generate insight in minutes, boosting service innovation for small‑business customers.
